Re: Hold\'em simulator (some competition for PokerStove)
It appears to be buggy. Either that, or my software is buggy.

Re: Hold\'em simulator (some competition for PokerStove)
What's the nature of your problem?

Re: Hold\'em simulator (some competition for PokerStove)
I was poking, poking poking, and it looks like it might be the monte carlo fucntionality doesn't converge well. When combined with the fact that you can't "re-run" a monte carlo evaluation, it's hard to tell if your numbers are off because of an internal bug, or if the monte carlo is just undersampled.

Re: Hold\'em simulator (some competition for PokerStove)
Ah, good. You had me worried there. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Just ran my exhaustive sims against yours to double check. They all check out. I will run some longer monte carlo simulations to make sure there isn't any real problem there (probably not, but worth a look). I have not focused too much energy on making the monte-carlo faster, but I may do that in the future to allow for longer simulations.
Nice program, by the way. I think there's plenty room for both of us in the poker world, and if nothing else, it's nice to have some confirmation that my results (might) be correct. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I still remember when I downloaded PokerStove (this after I had written a naive implementation) and thought "WHAT THE?!@?#!@?# HOW CAN THIS BE RUNNING SO DAMN FAST"? I hope you had as much fun coding PokerStove as I did coding my simulator. Cheers, bachfan |

I've released buggy versions before, so it's always good to get external verification that the bug wasn't on my side. Cheers, - Andrew |

Re: Hold\'em simulator (some competition for PokerStove)
Well, on your program, pocket aces versus four random hands converged to 55.872% equity after about 35 million trials.
After running mine for the same length, I get (you guessed it) 55.872%. I think I can stop worrying about this now. Cheers, bachfan |
